"Little Brat, there is someone who wants to meet you." the Old Dragon Soul's golden eyes flashed and a Projection appeared in front of Sheng Tian.
And the Old Dragon also disappeared from the place like it intended to let only the two of them speak.
Sheng Tian looked at the figure in front of him, or more precisely, the sparks of golden lights that spun and weaved the silhouette of a Man.
When the Man's figure was formed, the air stood still.
The World itself froze.
The Sun glowed intensely.
All the Beasts of the Mythical World kneeled down involuntarily while every human on the planet felt suffocated.
The Heavenly Dao of the Mythical World stopped functioning.
The fire didn't burn. The ice didn't feel cold.
Space froze. Time halted.
People who were about to die strangely didn't pass away-Death stopped.
No Life came into existence then- Life paused.
And the whole Mythical World started raining as if paying respects.
Each drop of rainwater was filled with the Major Laws of the Universe.
There were even Higher laws in some droplets.
In the hall, the light flickered and darkness danced.
The flames lit in the pathway bent down as if paying respects and the air itself didn't dare to make a sound and quietly blew.
Without even a need to think, Sheng Tian concluded the one in front was the Dragon God.
Even though he expected him to be insanely strong, he never imagined that he would be strong to this extent!
Strong enough to subdue the five elements, light and darkness just by his presence alone!
Sheng Tian didn't know of the heaven-defying incidents happening all over the Mythical World. If he did, he would not be as calm as he currently is.
Life and Death!
Heavenly Dao!
Even they had to bow down to him! What sort of Realm has he reached to make even them pay respects? It must be incomparably terrifying!
Sheng Tian's eyes were wide open due to the sheer surprise.
He couldn't see the Dragon God's face.
It was blurred and his entire body glowed with dazzling golden nimbus.
Sheng Tian remained silent and waited for the other party to talk.
Sure enough, a majestic voice reverberated in the entire hall. as the world reacted as if resonating with it.
"What is your name, Young One?" The question came out just like the heaven's decree.
Sheng Tian responded rather calmly "Sheng Tian."
"A suitable name for my successor. Good. Good.
Sheng Tian, this trial is not to make the next Mythical Dragon God.
I want my successor to be much stronger than me.
Stronger than any other Mythical Gods.
Therefore, the manual you received- "Celestial Body Tome" is above the level of Mythical Gods."
Sheng Tian's mouth was wide open.
What The Hell?
Seeing him confused, the Dragon God's domineering voice continued " 'Celestial Body Tome' is a manual which I found in an ancient ruin.
I couldn't cultivate it. But I gained a lot of insights from it making my body cultivation reach enormous heights.
So the trials I made would test the participants for high comprehension and unyielding heart.
As for the talent in body cultivation, I myself can give the Mythical Dragon Physique, the one you currently possess.
The little problem here is the Manual has two parts and I have only one."
"What the fuck!" Sheng Tian cursed out loud the moment the bomb landed.
Then, disregarding the difference in their cultivation and seniority, he glared "What do you mean a little problem?"
" I didn't even get a full cultivation technique!"
"And you want me to be grateful for getting this legacy?"his chest heaved up and down in anger.
After going through so much, what did he get? A half technique? How could he be happy?
"Ahem, once you get the other part, this part will be an invaluable treasure. Then you will be eternally grateful to me." the golden figure coughed lightly.
"The hell! You should at least have some more treasures, right?
Give me some miraculous pills to let me enter the Divine Pathway or some super duper strong pet.
Oh yeah, how about a mysterious egg your ancient friend gave to you for safe keeping! Just give me my Overpowered Pet."
"Cough, I don't have anything like that. In fact, I don't even have a single coin now. They, well, um,..." the Dragon God tried to think of an answer.
"What? You spent them all for courting girls?!" Sheng Tian's eyes widened in realization.
"Haha. Sheng, you can't say it like that. I just gave them because of my generosity. haha." the Dragon God said, his voice a bit shaky.
Sheng Tian pointed his finger at the golden figure in front, his voice raised and teeth gnashed: "You! You! I can't believe this! You Hopeless Pervert!
And you want me to be eternally grateful for the half book you gave me?
Damn. At least you should have kept something for me." he clenched his fist, almost wanting to beat up the dragon god.
The golden figure waved its hand lightly and stuck out its chest and raised his head "Who are you calling hopeless? My nickname is the god of love.
There is no beauty I dared not to flirt.
Every beauty in the four realms was hopelessly in love with me.
Okay, maybe except one realm. They are not a friendly bunch. But you get the point.
If you want any advice on this matter, there is no one better than me.
Originally, this interaction session would've cost you 100 million$, but since you are the successor of the legacy, I shall give you this knowledge for absolutely free.
Remember Sheng, treasures like the ones you asked can be earned but the knowledge I'm about to impart to you, it can only be taught by this awesome and suave Eternal Playboy.
This is inarguably the most precious and practical part of the legacy."
Sheng Tian immediately dropped his hand and gazed seriously at the Dragon God.
When the Dragon God almost thought that Sheng Tian was about to curse him again, Sheng Tian immediately smiled the most flattering and sincere smile ever seen and said "I know Senior is cool. I was just joking about the treasures earlier.
I knew Senior was the best hedonist.
Teach me Senpai!"
Looking at Sheng Tian who imitated a love-struck high schooler, Dragon God almost spat out blood.
Fuck, how can you be so shameless?
Weren't you cursing me earlier?
And hey, I'm the playboy, the love god, not the hedonist!
And I'm not your Senpai whatever it means!
However, to keep his role as a senior safe and let Sheng Tian continue respecting him, Dragon God nodded his head
"The first lesson- We are doing the world a great service by sharing our warmth with the helpless, lonely women. The second lesson- this is a holy mission. The third lesson-........................................"
Sheng Tian nodded his head as he used his memory to the limit.
Finally, after the lecture, Sheng Tian smiled lightly and bowed "Thank you. This is the best gift I've ever received. Regardless of anything else, I shall pass on this invaluable knowledge to the younger generations and spread the culture. All hail Men of Culture."
The Dragon God nodded his head in appreciation "Indeed. You are also a Man of culture."
Sheng Tian's expression turned serious the next second, almost shocking the Dragon God "Ok. Let's talk about serious matters, shall we?
What about the second part of the Manual? Where is it? And how do I find it?"
The Dragon god almost wanted to punch Sheng Tian's face upon hearing that.
Weren't you just passionately listening to the lecture earlier?
And didn't you just say it was invaluable? What the fuck are you actually thinking?
Who are you, really?
Then, controlling his fist which was about to hit Sheng Tian, he sighed:
"I know that you might be unhappy with this. But fret not, I am here for the exact reason.
The other Part of the manual is taken by Wrath God, one of the Mythical Gods and the only human to stand toe to toe with Divine Beast Gods in Physical Strength.
He is the only human I admire, for he forcefully cultivated this technique without the other part using his own comprehensions and talent.
He is without a doubt the most talented Mythical God. But alas, for women both of them,...Sigh"
"What's with this 'Mythical Gods?'"
The Majestic Voice said without concealing the overflowing pride in its tone "Mythical God stands above everyone, even above the Divine Gods.
Even though we are also called Divine Gods, we are in fact much stronger than them."
"Huh" Sheng Tian nodded without understanding much.
This was a power classification.
What does that have to do with him? and Wait, how would he find the other part just by knowing their name?
But his queries were answered immediately " I cannot intervene in your fate any further to try and find the location.
If I do, the results will be the opposite of what is desired. Now, it's totally up to you.
I believe that one day, you will find the other half of the manual and merge them.
I have a strong feeling that the whole would be greater than the sum of the parts."
Sheng Tian really felt like giving a beating to this irresponsible fellow even if he is the so-called 'Mythical God'.
He only forcefully restrained himself realizing that it is not possible to even hurt his hair with his current strength.
"I hope you surpass the Mythical Gods and reach the Legendary Realm.Please take care of the Dragon Race as their God's successor.
I know you still have questions, but it is better to find them yourself.
Remember, if you want to protect what you love, you need strength beyond mine." the Dragon God said, then the golden halo covering him suddenly vanished showing an extremely handsome Man who smiled and gave Sheng Tian a thumbs up!
"Above all, don't forget to be fucking awesome."
The wisp of Consciousness started to disperse as Sheng Tian felt a space tunnel open behind him as he was about to be sent out.
Before he was pulled out, he yelled his lungs out "Fuck! Give me some treasure! Or else I will sully your name after I go to the Divine Realm. You will become the cheapest Mythical God! I dare you Senior Handsome!"
The Dragon God's handsome face blackened hearing Sheng Tian's blackmail but upon hearing the word "Handsome", he relaxed totally and finally gritted his death before yelling back:
"Fine you little bastard. This is the only thing I have. Don't forget to say I'm fucking awesome when you go there. And I'm not blackmailed by you, I'm only giving it because you called me Handsome."
Sheng Tian nodded vehemently "Yes. Yes."
Then with a flick of his finger, a light shot towards Sheng Tian's storage ring before he disappeared.
The Ancient Hall crumbled as it began to collapse.
After Sheng Tian was teleported out, the Dragon Soul appeared near the Wisp of Consciousness of the Dragon God and knelt down "Master, You didn't tell him about the War."
The Dragon God flashed an enigmatic smile "Should I? I think it is better this way. Some things cannot be forced.
If I tell him to get stronger because he might shoulder the burdens of the realm one day, he might not take it and it can even become a heart demon later.
He needs to see the Divine Realm if he has to protect it.
Else, it would be a purpose without drive.
I don't want him to make the same mistakes I did.
Only when one knows the sweetness of life would he fight for it.
Life bounds none to stay with it, It is us who bound ourselves.
If he finds his life and those around him worthy, he will shoulder the responsibilities."
The Dragon Soul still kneeling, said with reverence: "Master is wise."
The Dragon God said had a smug smile on his handsome face " You only realized that now? I was always the wisest.
Aren't I fucking awesome? Come praise me. What are you waiting for?"
The Dragon Soul rolled its eyes and lowered its head as he thought of a way to change the topic: "I think he will go to the Divine Realm sooner than later, after all, the Soul with him is from the Divine Realm. I can tell from the aura."
"Oh, interesting. I didn't check his body earlier. But this is good as well.
He will face the truth sooner.
I think we will be disappearing together.
After all, this wisp of my consciousness was left behind when I was the closest to death." Indeed both him and Dragon Soul started to slowly become more and more transparent as if they were becoming the thin air.
"I wonder how good the Soul which is accompanying him." before fading away, he sensed the soul residing in Sheng Tian's body.
And when he did, he sensed something that made him utterly petrified.
As a Mythical God, there are few things that can make him shocked, but to shock him to the point of petrified, they could be counted on just one hand.
Before he vanished from existence, the Dragon God muttered as his trembling voice spoke his emotions of shock, surprise and most of all, disbelief. "How could it be her?"
.... .... ... ....
Meanwhile, the one responsible for shocking the Dragon God to death just woke up.
Yawning,her charming voice sounded in his mind "Hey, Where are we? Aren't you going for a trial? How did we get here?"
Listening to the nonstop questioning of the little lady who just woke up, Sheng Tian said teasingly "Haha, You slept all the way. And the trial is already over.
Little Lian, what a perfect timing to wake up! Such a lazy lass~" He couldn't help but imagine her grumpy face she would make upon hearing his words as his lips curled into a delightful smile.
It seems with her, life would never cease to be amusing.
